    I just gave my 82 dang dang away to a guy that restores and rides. Hadn’t run sitting outside for over a decade, he had it running in an hour or so. He has it all spiffed up now, been maybe a month. Glad he put it back in order. I had years of fun on it from Glamis to hard rock desert riding, hot or cold no issues. Still kids... don’t try to start those wearing Vans, still cringe thinking of the kickback I got several times. It was great watching those two going at it, high tech wonder 500 and the old tech soldier 490!

      @benny smaller SHAFT - _"You dang right"_ . That's exactly what I told a Buddy of mine who's still riding (currently a '97 *YZ* *125* ), what I'd do to him if I got back on my stock (except for my custom chewy beige/yellow handlebar grips) '74 *Honda* *CR250* *Elsinore* . On a non-supercross flat-out track like that, I'll dull his visor with _mud & dust_ , Baby!

    sometimes in racing you can have too much horsepower and the YZ proved that....and the CRs wheelie off the line gives you an idea of how much more HP it has by the rider pulling the wheelie and still accelerating away....
    but something to think about the CR has a power to weight ratio of 600hp per ton....(60hp-100kg)
    at best a HSV commodore has 556hp for its1800kg of dead weight , just think about that for a minute...

      The Honda had a little more top end the yz needed a sprocket swap to match topend . There are so many variables that play into the way a two stroke performs both bikes are probably heavily modified inside and out. They only way to tell which bike is faster is to put bone stock bikes out there on the same track with the same Rider and compare lap times.

    I had one of these yamahas back in the day, my bike never got beat, you gotta spend alotta time on jetting the carb, the older yamaha has only 4 speed, that why that honda was beaten him up, win u get these bikes jetted just right, an timing advance a lil, it will do close to 100 mph.

    The better rider on the YZ. The greater power of the CR kept it ahead… most of the way.
